Redistricting

Renee Hoagenson for Better Representation

In addition to campaign finance reform, we must restructure how our districts are drawn. We must take redistricting out of the hands of politicians. Partisan redistricting allows politicians to pick the people they represent rather than the people choosing their representatives. This is a flawed system. It has led to 95% of congressional incumbents being re-elected despite Congress having only a 25% approval rating. In Congress, Renee would push for a federal law mandating all redistricting in states be done by an independent, non-partisan redistricting commission or through mathematical algorithms.
